Texting etiquette and telling if someone is interested?

I met a new guy and he seems nice, he'll text me good morning and all and we'll have small talk during the day but once night comes he barely responds, he doesn't even look at my text (we have iPhones) until the next morning, one night I know he was out with his friends but could it be I'm boring or he's not that interested or what do you think?

There's a thing called space… Give him his own time.

It sounds like he likes you as a friend, and he is happy doing his own thing, no pressure. So I wouldn't judge him by what he does or doesn't do as it is so new. Sounds like you need to do more with your life in hobbies or a job or something, because you are setting yourself up for alot of disappointments by being too dependent on texts and messaging. Guys do their thing and girls clutch and cling to their guys by the phones. Even in committed relationships, guys aren't there texting and committed to their phones like girls seem to. You seem to be following what he is doing and not doing and worried about it all. I would bluntly say back right off of him, and be more independent. Find yourself.
